Smarter Underwriting

Deal Analysis.
AI-Augmented.

We apply AI tools to real estate underwriting β€” ARV modeling, market rent research, cash-on-cash projections, and co-living feasibility analysis. Faster, more consistent, and better-calibrated than doing it by hand.

The Frameworks

Four Core Analysis Models

🏚️

Co-Living Conversion Feasibility

Assess whether a property is a viable co-living conversion. Inputs: bedroom count, layout, location, market rents per room, furnishing budget, management costs.

Key Outputs

  • β†’Projected monthly gross income
  • β†’Net operating income estimate
  • β†’Comparison to traditional rental
  • β†’Break-even occupancy rate
πŸ”¨

BRRRR Underwriting

Full BRRRR deal underwriting from purchase through refinance. AI-assisted ARV triangulation from comps, condition adjustments, and micro-market data.

Key Outputs

  • β†’After-repair value estimate
  • β†’All-in cost basis
  • β†’Projected refinance amount
  • β†’Equity pulled vs. left in deal
🏒

Multi-Unit NOI Analysis

Net operating income analysis for 2–6 unit properties. Current vs. market rent delta, expense normalization, and cap rate benchmarking.

Key Outputs

  • β†’Current NOI
  • β†’Stabilized NOI (market rents)
  • β†’Value delta from repositioning
  • β†’Cap rate vs. market
πŸ’°

Cash-on-Cash Return

Quick cash-on-cash calculator for any rental strategy. Works for co-living, traditional rental, or short-term rental scenarios.

Key Outputs

  • β†’Annual cash flow
  • β†’Cash-on-cash return %
  • β†’Total return with appreciation
  • β†’Sensitivity to rent and vacancy changes

Why AI

Where AI Tools Change the Math

Faster ARV Estimation

AI tools triangulate after-repair value from multiple comp pools simultaneously β€” accounting for condition, lot size, bedroom/bath configuration, and micro-market trends. What takes hours manually takes minutes.

Market Rent Research

Instead of manually checking listings on Zillow and Apartments.com, AI tools pull and normalize rental comps across multiple sources β€” giving a more reliable market rent benchmark for underwriting.

Scenario Modeling

Run best-case, base-case, and stress-case scenarios on a deal in seconds. Change assumptions (rent, vacancy, expense ratio, cap rate) and see the impact on return instantly.

Pattern Recognition

AI helps identify which deal characteristics correlate with strong vs. weak outcomes β€” vacancy patterns, tenant quality indicators, neighborhood trajectory signals.

AI tools improve speed and consistency β€” they don't replace operator judgment. We use AI to surface data and model scenarios; experienced investors make the final call.

Bring a Deal to the Lab

REI Strategy Lab community members can submit active deals for group analysis. Share the property details, your underwriting assumptions, and the questions you need answered β€” we'll run the frameworks and give you operator-level feedback.
